Perfect spot right next to Doheny Beach. Love sitting next to the fire pits on a cold afternoon. They offer a good happy hour during the week. Service has always been friendly and helpful!

Amazing place to visit and watch the sunset.. specially if you are camping at the beach. Love music of Saturdays. Good burgers and drinks including beer and margaritas. Excellent service. Great views.

Came here multiple times during our stay in Dana point. Great beach vibes. Happy hour is 4-6 pm Mon - Thurs. they make good piña coladas and have brewery X on tap. Staff was friendly and helpful. Food is ok, nothing outta this world but the views and location can't be beat.

I loved the location. Right on the beach and the weather was perfect. My friend loved the tuna melt sandwich. The fries and chicken were good. They do have soda outside in coolers but nothing was cold. They also have all the condiments outside for easy access. I would just be aware it's been outside on warm days. This place is down the street from work and a perfect place for a quick lunch on a beautiful day.

Can't complain about the beachfront location and love the amount of seats available. The food is decently priced and it gets ready pretty fast even when the place is busy but a few things: the fries with any entree seem to be the very heavily seasoned kind (which some people especially little people might not like). We got lucky that our friend ordered their food first and we knew to ask for plain fries which they made no problem but we wouldn't have known that the fries were seasoned. Also I ordered fish and chips which was really oily. I know it's fried but I have eaten my fair share of and chips and a lot of times it's not so soggy with oil. The fish pieces were also pretty small. So food isn't the best I've had but location Samuele adds to the experience.

While there's a few chain restaurants within walking distance of Doheny beach, this is the most convenient option. The line got long after 1130am so you'll want to arrive early, we came around 11 and walked right up to the order window. The menu included our favorites such as fish tacos, tuna melts, burgers and fries so there's a little bit more selection than your typical fast food on the beach. Everything was made to order and tasted fine, prices were reasonable considering the convenience and staff service was good. My only issue was the fish tacos we got were a bit on the tough side, more dry than I'm used to. There's quite a bit of bench seating, some with shade covering, and right on the beach soaked for a comfortable lunch or snack with even a larger group. They describe themselves as the "only on-the-beach cafe" in SoCal, while that's not really true, it is one of the better ones.
